Call of Duty Classic Coming To PSN, XBLA 'Eventually'

Back when Infinity Ward first revealed the special editions for Modern Warfare 2, little was mentioned about Call of Duty Classic, a downloadable version of the original Call of Duty game released in 2003.

Those who buy either the Hardened or Prestige editions will be given a token to download the game for free.

But what about those who just want to buy the regular edition? Well, you can download Call of Duty Classic, too, but you'll have to wait.

....or you could buy it on steam, it's not exactly a demanding game

Some people like myself prefer the good ol' sticks to keyboard and mouse combination. And the community of PSN and occasionally xbox live (when you are not partnered up with 12 year olds or frat boys) is more enjoyable to some.

uh, what does XBL/PSN differences have to do with steam or the call of duty PC fanbase?

ExcelKnight5375d ago (Edited 5375d ago )

Good 'ol sticks?

Since when were they the best control scheme for FPS, especially old-school PC FPS?

The PS3 can support mouse & keyboard, so I hope CoD Classic does as well.

It better have trophies/achievments..

Marquis_de_Sade5374d ago

That's a given as all Arcade games have achievements (not community made ones though) and it's well past the Sony deadline for mandatory trophies in PS3 games.

IaMs125374d ago

yah it will but the problem is that its only 200 points, basicly like 10 achievements or less

jonnyp7775374d ago (Edited 5374d ago )

...because they could make small value achievements to allow more. They could have 200, one point achievements if they wanted. A little exaggerated, but I hope you see my point, haha.

sorry not even close ... as much as i love cod 1 its not better than mw ...

infact cod united offensive ... which is the expansion pack of cod 1 is probably 10 times better and more intense than cod 1 and cod 2...

agentace5375d ago

COD4 is the worst out of all the CODs, its TOO n00b friendly

peacock15375d ago

Odds on activision trying to charge £40 for this?

Myself and my friends are only buying COD:MW2 preowned. Screw you Infinity ward.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.
